They lost the semi final second leg last year after 3 goals for Madrid in the last 5 minutes.

On RedCafe those who say they want city to win etc explain itās because it will be a hollow win as city are a plastic club
I donāt know though, I wouldnāt want my local rivals to win anything, plastic or not.

Are we even entertaining this? This is just copium from them. City have been shitting all over Utdās legacy for the past 6 years. This keeps going, there will be one club called āManchesterā and it wonāt be the team wearing red.

United beat them in the cup final and they will dwarf them over night in branding stakes and fanbase hype.
City have to remain at this level for their fanbase and brand to hold any long term standing. Its not that high now at the peak of their powers.
Haha
It will take City a long time before they even rival Unitedās popularity and fanbase around the world.
Or your husband. Are they single, married?
Sheās married which is why I mentioned the watching your wife haha. No idea on Thierry marital situation

If youāre married, stay faithful. If you canāt, just stay single. Itās so simple imo.
Sheās married, and I think Thierry is still with that Bosnian lady he was with after he left us. I donāt have the CBS coverage myself but pretty much every clip of the show involves them flirting like teenagers.
I guess this is just what famous people in sports do. I have a hard time believing most people in that domain stay faithful. Thierry has probably not married again for that very reason.
Clothes are being thrown out the window

Titi you hero, Kate is an absolute Wonder Woman.
Iām seeing so much disrespect towards Inter. Bit ridiculous. They made it through that group of hell with Bayern and Barca. Beat a Benfica that topped their group that had PSG and Juve. They beat Porto who traditionally do well in Europe. And then they completely outclassed their local rivals in the semis.
Friendly reminder that the second best team in the country got knocked out by Sporting. 
Not sure what thread I should put this in tbh 
Obviously fine to express an opinion on what he wants, when he wants, but I feel he could at least make some sort of suggestion about what thinks needs to be done to address the āproblemā he has identified. Otherwise it just seems like heās taking a positive moment for Luton and Coventry and using it to have a gripe about the state of football in other European leagues. What is it he actually wants to be done?
Isnāt it fine for people in England to celebrate our many well attended football leagues within the pyramid and say it needs protecting without having to stop and think about other European leagues?
Do Spanish football fans celebrating football in their country need to stop and think about the financial and general health of football in Poland and Belgium?
When Italian football was well on top in the 90s etc, did anyone in Italy give a shit about leagues in other countries, was there any vague suggestion that they should be doing something to help anyone else?
I donāt get the sense that Juve gove a shit about earning vastly more money than Sassuolo, or any team from a less popular league outside Italy, why should I give a shit if Luton get more money than them?

In his replies to others he sort of clarifies what he means. Heās not asking English clubs to care about other European clubs , he more wants regulation from UEFA so that the Premier League donāt lap up all the TV money.
The Premier League has obviously marketed itself so well worldwide. But heās saying the competitive balance in European competitions will be very uneven if the money isnāt spread more.

Thatās a ridiculous notion for me. I get the idea of money trickling down the leagues (even if they do it a bit arseways) but what would that UEFA wide regulation look like?
Wage caps? Youād have to go pretty high to account for deals already in place. So the distortion would remain.
Transfer limits? Transfer fees are how some clubs keep the lights on. Would do more damage than good.
Pooling of money? Why should a badly run Juve profit off a well run Brighton.
And city and psg etc would still just cheat anyway.

The truth is that the game in England has been marketed globally so well and the internal health of the game is amazing too.
The football pyramid in England is sacred. There are rules in place to protect it, the lower leagues benefit from TV deals that other countries lower leagues couldnāt dream of in a million years.
Weāve got good infrastructure where most clubs own their stadiums, loyal local fan bases and a television package that appeals to a global audience.
Germany seems resistant to change and many club fans are happy with the product and donāt care to compete with mega money English clubs.
Italian football is a mess from top to bottom where nobody owns their own stadium (bar a select few clubs) and revenue growth is stunted by so many factors.
Spain has always favoured the few at the top and thatās created a disparity thatāll take decades to close
